Grateful Now

Intro

Yeah

Mm

Look

⸻

Verse 1

Woke up breathin’, that’s a win to me

Had nights I couldn’t sleep, just pray for peace

I was broke but my hope stayed rich

Had faith even when it didn’t make sense

I remember wishin’ just to be okay

Not even dreamin’ ‘bout a better place

Now I look back like “man, we made it through”

Every scar got a story I don’t erase, no

I ain’t forget where I started from

I just learned how to run my race

Had my back against the wall so long

Now I smile when I feel that space

⸻

Pre-Chorus

I don’t thank God only when I win

I thanked Him when I was losin’ friends

If the lights go out and the fame slow down

I’d still bow my head, yeah I’m grateful now

⸻

Chorus

Yeah I’m grateful now

Didn’t have much but I made it out

Still pray first when I wake up now

If it all went away, I’d be grateful now

Yeah I’m grateful now

For the lows that showed me how

If I lost it all, I’d still be proud

‘Cause I learned who I am — yeah I’m grateful now

⸻

Verse 2

I remember stress sittin’ at the door

Heart so tired but I wanted more

I ain’t quit when it got real dark

I just learned how to see in the storm

They didn’t see the tears hit the floor

They just see the smile when I walk through doors

But every prayer had weight to it

Every step had faith to it

I don’t brag ‘bout the nights I cried

But I know they built this backbone strong

Every wrong turn showed me right

Now I know where I belong

⸻

Pre-Chorus

I don’t measure life by the things I own

I measure joy by the seeds I’ve sown

If tomorrow comes and the plans fall through

I’d still say thank You for what You do

⸻

Chorus

Yeah I’m grateful now

Didn’t have much but I made it out

Still pray first when I wake up now

If it all went away, I’d be grateful now

Yeah I’m grateful now

For the pain that slowed me down

If the world went quiet, I’d stand proud

‘Cause I learned who I am — yeah I’m grateful now

⸻

Bridge

I used to pray just to make it through

Now I pray just to stay in truth

I don’t need the spotlight bright

I just need my soul aligned

Every breath feel borrowed now

Every moment feel louder now

I don’t chase the highs no more

I found joy in the ground I’m standin’ on

⸻

Final Chorus

Yeah I’m grateful now

For the nights I was breakin’ down

For the friends that stayed around

For the faith that never let me drown

Yeah I’m grateful now

If I’m up or I’m layin’ low

I already won — I already know

I’m walkin’ proof, yeah I’m grateful now

⸻

Outro

Yeah

No matter where I go

Still grateful
